Out of commission!

[Shawn Leonard]

I am scheduled for shoulder surgery in two weeks. I may not visit much after that. I think it will tempt me too much too shoot to soon. I am having my rotator and labrum repaired. IThe doc. said that I will be able to shoot again in about 6 weeks, I hope I am ready for the Muzzy in August. Shawn

[Minuteman]

Hope you have a quick recovery!

[houseman]

Good luck to you Shawn.  Jeff

6 weeks? I had a mumford proceedure and it was 6 months before I could shoot a lightweight and a year before a hunting weight bow comfortably.

Good luck with the surgery Shawn, do your physical therapy as told and no more. It really will be better after the surgery.

[TexMex]

Good luck Shawn and a quick recovery.

[Hot Hap]

Good luck Shawn. With the PT you'll be back in a short short. Hap

I really hope you are at the Muzzy. I had the same surgery 18 months ago and I was in a restructed sling for at least 6 weeks...couldn't even brush my teeth with my affected arm. Getting back to shooting was a while in coming. I waited to have the surgery after hunting season in Dec. and if I remember correctly I could shoot a lighter weight bow by turkey season. I am a fast healer and was about a month ahead of schedule on my recovery. I wiish you luck and the best advice I can give you is to lilsten to your PT and do what they say to do and no more or no less. Just don't rush anything or you will also miss deer season.

[CBergeman]

Good luck Shawn.

Even though you will be tempted, don't call your physical terrorist....er, therapist, any bad names.

Heal quick but be patient with recovery.

Listen to your rehab folks when you get there. Doing it properly speeds up the rcovery process.

[WildmanSC]

Shawn,

We'll be praying for you.  Hope the surgery goes well and that you'll be a good therapy patient.  If so, your recovery will go as quick as possible.

[Roadkill]

this is the case where the doctor knows best-take the time necessary to heal and reconstruct properly.  I had a cyst removed and I could not even pull 25#, but within a couple weeks I was on my way back up.  If you do it right you don't damage any more tissue.  Good luck

Good luck Shawn,and listen to the doc!
